Green and Blue Zanzibar Ocean Lodge

Green and Blue Zanzibar Ocean Lodge is a high quality beach lodge situated on the back an excellent white-sand beach at the northern end of Matemwe village. The walled plot contains well kept tropical gardens, two lovely swimming pools, a large main building with great views, an extensive spa with another large pool and just 12 lovely large guest suites with private plunge pools. The diving in the area is excellent and there is a wide range of marine and other activities available.

The main potential downsides at Green and Blue Zanzibar Ocean Lodge are that the lodge is relatively expensive and not a five star facility, as some guests seem to presume. The in village location is also a potential negative, as it the relatively tight plot and the fact that there is no dedicated watersports centre. The beach is not private and the lagoon is very tidal. Excursions to the south of the island are a little distant and there is very little night-life in the area.
